Biennial 16
Curated by:
Natalie Olanick
Since its first inception in1992, the Faculty of Fine Arts Biennial has showcased the varied practices of teachers from the Department of Fine Arts, offering students and the community the opportunity to glimpse their work outside of the classroom.
Their contributions to this exhibition span a variety of media鈥攑ainting, sculpture, photography, mixed media, and the written word, among others鈥攊llustrating a profound engagement with both traditional practices and new technologies.聽 聽At the core of the many explorations that this exhibition offers are complexities surrounding the environment (both natural and built); the human condition and the relationships that we forge; the material world; and more intangible elements linked to our existence.聽 聽Through the work, one can gain insight not only into the artists themselves, but also into the evolving artistic landscape that shapes the Fine Arts department.
By bridging theory and practice, this exhibition nourishes students in their own work, and contributes to a larger cultural dialogue within the artistic community. 聽(Amanda Beattie)
